re: Any word on Pegues?

I think maybe something we don’t know is coming with Bentley. He tweeted something about the light at the end of the tunnel and in Dart’s post game presser he was asked about Bentley and he says don’t be surprised if he gets in and takes over a game…thinking maybe he’s getting out of the doghouse or just being rested for league play? Either way, we good.

I know he had to go by the end. Just want some of yall to finally admit that the locker room issues made you blind to the fact he is a super talented running back who we do not have a good replacement for.

Also, if you think Q was a cancer but Hugh Freeze is not, maybe sit this one out HJJ

Nobody ever said he wasn’t talented. But he’s not the type of player that will turn your team into a contender. No running back is unless they’re named Reggie Bush or Derrick Henry.

And before you point out the level of competition, our schedule has been just as weak.

Actually I already pointed out OUR weak schedule. We're on pace to pass last year's rushing totals at this point and to be honest we wouldn't have been able to improve our O-Line if Q was still on the payroll.

It's weird to me that you're complaining about tough yards when we're averaging over 50 points a game and well over 600 yards a game.

That may end up being the case this season. Now is not the time to be making that argument though.

Nope. Since February I have admitted he had to go but I wish he didnt

I’ve always wished him the best and don’t hold any negative feelings towards Judkins personally. You guys gotta remember.. he is a kid. What is he 20? He gave us a lot of great games and effort, and we certainly benefitted from his presence most certainly when he was a true Freshman. Ego happens. Sometimes people need to be humbled. I hope he learned from it. We can sit here and play coulda shoulda woulda, but yeah I mean I wish him the best and imagine if somehow we get linked up against tOSU in a playoff game. One big reason I’m butthurt the USC v OM series was cancelled given Lane’s history with USC. We really need a premiere OOC game.

No not a kid and he is a legal adult. I used the term lightly. But let’s be real.. he isn’t being drafted into war. He is a 20 year old playing college football in an ever growing social media age / NIL era. He got an ego. But how do we do without him when he was a true freshman or even some games his sophomore year? shite happens.

Sidenote I’m one of your few Freeze sympathizers but sadly man I think that ship has sailed.

A running back's only real goal isn't to break long TD runs. That's great and all but their main purpose, especially in our offense, is guaranteed short yardage. Judkins proved time and time again, last season, that he was very unreliable in that area. When we needed a yard or two to keep a drive going, he was almost always stopped at the line.

Judkins contribution to the team < money demanded + bad attitude. Simple equation really.

Just where the heck is Bentley anyways?
